What's Included

Pool Remodeling & Renovation
scope.

Pool Remodeling & Renovation projects need a different scope than a generic pool build. This is the work we clarify before crews are scheduled, so the proposal matches the actual field conditions.

Planning

Scope before site work

Design, access, and permit details get settled before the job is opened up.

  • Existing pool assessment
  • Leak detection and pressure testing
  • Drain, demo, and surface prep
Handoff

Finish and handoff

Equipment setup, finish care, and owner walkthroughs are part of the closeout.

  • Spa, bench, and step modifications
  • Equipment and automation upgrades
  • Lighting and plumbing updates
  • Startup and water balancing
Starting from $35k · Typical timeline: 3-8 weeks
Before remodel work starts, we show material renders for finish color, tile, coping, and lighting so Caribbean blue does not turn into a different water color once shade, plaster tone, and surrounding hardscape are factored in.

Common Questions

Pool Remodeling & Renovation
FAQ.

What does pool remodeling cost in Los Angeles?
A clean plaster, tile, and coping remodel often runs $35,000-$75,000. Add equipment, deck work, leak detection, lighting, or a spa and the number commonly moves into the $90,000-$180,000 range.
How long does a pool remodel take?
Most LA pool remodels take 3-8 weeks. Resurfacing alone can be 7-10 days, while leak detection, tile, coping, deck work, and equipment changes stretch the schedule.
Can you add a spa to an existing pool?
Often, yes. A spa addition usually runs $55,000-$120,000 because it changes plumbing, heating, structure, automation, and sometimes the deck. The existing shell and access decide how practical it is.
Is resurfacing the same as remodeling?
No. Resurfacing replaces the interior finish only. Remodeling can include resurfacing plus tile, coping, lighting, equipment, deck changes, step reshaping, and new water features.
Do remodels need permits?
Simple plaster work may not need a full building permit, but electrical, gas heater, structural changes, spa additions, and major plumbing usually do. City of LA, Pasadena, Beverly Hills, and coastal cities all handle this differently.
Can you show finish materials before draining the pool?
Yes. We inspect, measure, photograph, and create material renders before draining. Finish color, tile, coping, and lighting are reviewed first so the selected water color matches the backyard conditions.
